I still haven’t worked out if I love Banksy or I hate Banksy. Is he against the art establishment or more art establishment than any other artist alive? Is he a street rebel or a middle class rich boy seeking money and fame? Is he a vandal or a social commentator? Is he a serious artist or a marketing professional experimenting with the gullibility of the art world?

You never know where you stand with Banksy as he sheds his skin just when you think he has stood still long enough to put a label on him. The one thing that is crystal clear about the UK graffiti artist from Bristol is his marketing genius. The man has almost single-handedly recreated the genre of urban art and taken it from the streets to the art auction house.

It’s his largest exhibition to date with 100 works on display in a range of mediums and styles. He remixes (or vandalizes) classic paintings, puts a new spin on classic marble sculpture with the likes of Posh Spice shopping, shows some of his more familiar stencil cut-out works with the usual social messages, and displays some of his creepily wonderful animatronic works that received a lot of attention at his New York City pet store show in 2008.

Time will tell if Banksy is just a gimmick, but for now he is still doing more than enough to remain interesting. Entry is free and the exhibition ends on the 31st of this month. Expect to wait in line, though (up to three hours), as every man and his dog in Bristol has come out to see what all the Banksy fuss is about.
